Design is as much an act of spacing as an act of marking. |

Design is an art of situations. Designers respond to a need, a problem, a circumstance, that arises in the world. The best work is produced in relation to interesting situations — an open-minded client, a good cause, or great content. |

The power of the grid is to lift the designer outside of the protective capriciousness of the "self" by providing an existing set of possibilities, a set of rules. |
